Large Photo Prints — 20x30cm from £0.44, the UK's Lowest Price

The two sizes are close in area but different in shape, and the right one depends on what took the photo.

Phones shoot 4:3, and 20x27 cm is almost exactly that shape — so a phone photo fills it with barely a millimetre trimmed. Proper cameras shoot 3:2, which is exactly 20x30 cm. Match the print to the camera and nothing is lost.

Not sure, or the photo is an unusual shape? Use a variable format instead: pick a fixed dimension of 20 cm and we set the other side from your image's own proportions, so nothing is cropped whatever shape it is. That is also how to get a 20x25 cm (10x8") or a 20x20 cm square print.

For scale, a 20x30 cm print is about four times the area of a 6x4 and slightly shorter and narrower than a sheet of A4.

This is the size where resolution genuinely starts to matter, so it is worth thirty seconds of checking.

A 20x30 cm print wants 2362 × 3543 pixels — about 8.4 megapixels — for a full 300 DPI result. A standard 12 MP phone photo clears that; a 48 MP phone has room to spare. At 200 DPI, which is perfectly sharp for a framed print viewed from a metre away, you only need about 3.7 MP.

What Will Not Hold Up at This Size

• Screenshots — typically 2–3 MP, and already compressed
• Photos saved from Instagram or WhatsApp — often re-compressed to under 2 MP; always go back to the original in your camera roll
• Heavy crops and digital zoom — a 12 MP photo cropped to a quarter of the frame is 3 MP, fine at 6x4 but marginal at 20x30 cm

Our uploader checks every image against the size you have picked and flags anything too low-resolution, so you find out before you pay rather than when it arrives.

From £0.44 per print — the lowest price for a print this size in the UK.

Both finishes use the same premium paper and the same 12-colour inks — only the surface coating differs, so print quality is identical either way.

At this size the choice matters more than it does on a 6x4: a large gloss print catches window and lamp reflections across its whole surface. Choose matte if it is going behind glass, gloss if it is going up unframed or you want maximum colour punch.

• Gallery walls — at £0.44 a print, a twelve-print wall costs under a tenner in prints
• Framing — fills a standard large frame or sits inside a mount with a proper border
• Portraits and family photos — big enough to read faces across a room
• Landscapes and travel — wide scenes need the width to work at all
• Stair walls and hallways — a run of same-size prints up a staircase
• Prints for framing as gifts — a large print in a decent frame is a complete present
